Fewer Men, More Babies
Author: Timothy T. Schwartz
Publisher: Lexington Books
ISBN: 9780739128671
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Based on original ethnographic research, this book demonstrates how the process unfolds in contemporary rural Haiti; how intensive work regimes make children necessary; how this necessity conditions sexual behavior, gender relations, and kinship; and why, despite massive contraceptive campaigns, birth rates in rural Haiti continue to be among the highest in the world. Timothy T. Schwartz offers a solution to a demographic paradox that some of the most prominent sociologists and demographers of the twentieth century noted but were never able to explain: among impoverished small farmers, when more men are absent due to male wage migration, the women remaining behind give birth to more, not fewer, babies. Book jacket.
